Following L.A. foodies: Twitterers with good appetites

Who are you following on Twitter? For many of us, finding out where @KogiBBQ was parked was the first time we really used Twitter. I follow some non-L.A. based food folks like @ruthreichl, @davidleibovitz and @clothildenet, but most of my follows are local.Here's a few that have something interesting to say, whether once in a while or every day.Please add any other L.A.-based Twitterers with good food content in the comments and I'll post a complete directory page with live links.

Food and other L.A. bloggers who Twitter, in no particular order:@foodgps -- lots of links to the blog, with some additional tweets@eatfoodwithme -- Miles Clements writes for the L.A. Times food section@LAOCFoodie -- strong on cocktail observations especially@pleasurepalate -- a veritable Twitter machine and food events planner@typefiend - Apartment Therapy blogger and Silver Lake dweller@thedelicious -- founder of Tastespotting is a voracious Twitterer@angelenic -- one of the best for news about Downtown L.A.@Tunatoast -- Tokyoastrogirl is a Highland Park-based foodblogger@sinosoul -- TonyC is a very opinionated fellow with a love of many ethnic foods@mattarmendariz -- food photographer and generally lucky guy@foodeater -- Vegan from the To Live and Eat in L.A. blog. Read the blog too or you'll the great photos.@quarrygirl -- also vegan, also takes nice photos on her blog@mylastbite@mattatouille@wanderchopstick@whiteonrice@oishiieats@eatlosangeles

Nice list, Pat. Might as well add me to the list...the OTHER Lesley B (former Eater, now Tasting Table): @LesleyLA. I tweeted the whole Peabble Beach weekend, and will continue on. I'll also be adding stuff to TastingTableLA as soon as they make it pretty. xo

Great list. I now have some more really cool foodies to follow. We also write a food blog and try to tweet often about food, you can find us @tasty_morsel we are based out of the L.A area, so most of the restaurants and writing adventures are in L.A.

I'm there too, even though I haven't fully embraced tweeting like the others. I tried messaging you via Twitter, which maybe didn't work, showing how clueless I am on that site. Anyway, I'm @RitzBites. Thanks, Jess
